Isabel Montoya is an Adler University of Clinical Psychology student. Working in partnership with Fellow Shaun Morganfield, Isabel will initiate mental health seminars and mentorship programs for 6th-8th grade students and high school students with the support of Mental Health America. The seminars and mentorship program will provide advocacy, education, and social support structure for pre-teens and teenagers. Isabel seeks to raise $1000 for mental health speakers & field trips, as well as $300 for high supplies, certificates, and awards for students.

The Schweitzer Fellowship is a year-long service learning program for graduate students in health-related professions who will design and implement innovative direct service projects aimed at improving the health and well-being of underserved Chicago area communities. Through their community projects and participation in a year-long program that includes mentoring support, monthly meetings, written reflection, and interprofessional collaboration, Schweitzer Fellows are developing the skills and confidence needed to become Leaders in Service—professionals who will remain dedicated to public service and to creating change.

In the summer of 2018, the Schweitzer Fellows for Life network launched Fellows Fest 2018, a campaign to help support our current Fellows' projects. Each of the Fellows has created a "wish list" of supplies and resources that will help them realize their service project goals. We also invite you to join us for our Fellows Fest event taking place on September 11 in Chicago.

The Chicago Areas Schweitzer Fellowship is a program of Health & Medicine Policy Research Group. Your Summer Fest donation will appear on your credit card statement at "Health & Medicine."
